Credo
Hey, James, don’t you believe anything?
Credo- Definition: a guiding belief or principle.
Credo(s), I think we all have them. I have published over 90 articles on Medium. I suppose I could have done more. But I guess I can only write when moved to do so. That is just who I am. I think some are worthy of consideration. I have had several boosted. I have about 530 followers (click the button I’d love to reach a thousand!). Mostly, I have received affirming comments. Then again, since half of my writings (give or take a bit) touch on religion, I have got a few “You are the Spawn of Satan” type things too. Do they hurt? Naw, not really. When it comes to what I write, you either get it or you don’t.
I’d like to sketch out a bit of my credo about things spiritual in this article. Why? First, because I have never done it before on this platform. Second, I think it will help folks make better sense of the kinds of things I write. They are there for all to see. I am hoping my credo will provide some context. I am not going to lay out my personal history. It is all right there (just click the link) in black and white.
So, where, oh where do I start with my credo? Every week in my parish, we recite the Nicene Creed. I guess that is sort of the standard for orthodoxy. In fact, earlier in my journey, I accepted…
